On Dec. 4, Woods, along with assistant superintendent Ericka McDuffe, were suspended with pay. Lt. Dennis Mihm, Sgt. James Cerone and three deputies were reassigned to desk duty pending the outcome of the investigation.

Silva was arrested in West Palm Beach on Dec. 8.

The internal investigation into the incident is expected to be concluded by next month.

Woods no longer is under investigation by the sheriff's office Department of Professional Compliance because she has resigned.
